Cities might be designed for people, but plenty of birds have managed to make themselves right at home. From the iconic ibis to cheeky brushturkeys, laughing kookaburras to sassy cockatoos — and just about every feathered friend in between — each species has found its own clever way to thrive in the urban jungle. They swoop, they poop, they crack open bins, and they always make an entrance.
Join Hugh Possingham, Vice-President of BirdLife Australia, as he chats with Ann Jones, Christina Zdenek and Darryl Jones. Follow the call of the curlew and flap into a world that’s truly worth crowing about!
Big City Birds: The Secret Lives of Urban Avians is part of World Science Festival Brisbane. Find out more here.
